hAND

So what are hAND about? We could tell you its about our teenage angst and anger at the world that drives our music, or something like our extreme political views that fuels our need to be heard or even the "we just want to be famous and be able to pull chicks / guys" (delete as appropriate) thing. But it isn't.

I suppose im writing this as I want people to understand our music more and where we are coming from. The whole thing about hAND is its all based on feelings / emotions (which some would argue all music is) but its more than just you wake up and feel sad so you write about the fact that your sad kinda thing.

Its more how the energy and flow of the music makes you feel when you hear it. Emotions are complicated, multilayered, forever changing beasts that are hard to track and we hope our music some way encompasses that side of things.

The vocals are there to give it some direction without crowding the music, but at the same time purposely left quite abstract as we're not trying to outline how this piece of music makes you feel. We want lots of people to listen to our music and come away taking something different from it. To have an experience thats unique to them.

So to conclude if your looking for anthemic pop punk choruses we are not the band for you, likewise it you want heavy heavy riffage and growls you'd best look somewhere else but if you want to be taken somewhere, to feel, to understand us you'd best check out our downloads page.
